[BTS Facts] First impression of one another

Image
RM -Jungkook entered Big Hit Entertainment because he thought RM's rap was amazing. When Jungkook met RM for the first time, RM was in his underwear. Jungkook's first words were "Wow, thick thighs!" -When Suga met RM for the first time, RM was with other two trainees. The three were wearing Adidas' navy, green and black sweatsuits, and Suga thought "Oh, everyone has to wear Adidas' sweatsuit in Big Hit Entertainment". Suga bought Adidas' blue sweatsuit later. -When J-Hope was trained in Gwangju after entering Big Hit Entertainment, RM and Suga were revealed, and he thought "Wow, they're really cool". -V knew about RM and Suga even before entering Big Hit Entertainment, and he thought they're really cool. However, when V met RM for the first time, RM was half asleep with his strange glasses on.

G-Dragon's Philanthropy

Image
G-Dragon has shown support for numerous charity organizations over the years, notably at the final concert of his world tour in 2013, a booth was erected, where fans could donate to build a fishery in Haiti, as a collaboration with YG Entertainment's With Campaign which he previously worked with to help build a school in Nepal. At the same event he and his fans from 14 different countries around the world donated 9.9 tons of rice, which was sent to help malnourished children, elderly living on their own, and other people in need. He's donated 81.8 million won every year on his birthday. G-Dragon donated 50 million won in 2011 when fans donated under his name and in 2012 privately by himself to Seoul National University Hospital to help children with diseases get treatment, it was revealed accidentally in 2017 as his name was engraved on a plaque honoring those who had contributed 100 million won or more. G-Dragon has used his image to raise awareness for multiple caus...

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Yoo Inna

Image
When I met Yoo Inna for the first time, I thought, “She’s really pretty.” She looks better in real life. What I felt about her is that she’s full of charms and knows how to treat people. She is the type of person who is very popular among men. And yeah, she’s really popular among Korean male celebrities in real life. Here's an episode. When she visited Hong Kong to attend 2014 MAMA, a very famous actor visited there around the same time. I’m sorry, I cannot reveal his name, but he really is a big star. Anyway, in Hong Kong, the only thing he's interested in was chasing Yoo Inna and he even sang IU’s song in karaoke to win Yoo Inna’s favor.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Uee

Image
Uee is a consistent person. Even after becoming very popular because of her sexy thighs, she didn’t put on airs. Actually, she was already 21 when she debuted in 2009. Unlike other k-pop idols who usually debut when they’re teenagers, Uee has lived as an ordinary student till she became 20. Of course, she was a swimmer in her school days, but I mean, she didn’t receive a special k-pop training in her teenage life, and it’s a notable difference between her and other idols because that’s why she acts differently from them. She acts like an ordinary young girl in her waiting room and gets along well with anyone. She’s not prim-minded at all.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Song Jihyo

Image
Song Jihyo is the most popular female star among female journalists. She’s free and easy, and never pretends to be pretty. She treats journalists like a friend and doesn’t act difficult. She answers questions readily, but she’s not fooled by journalists’ trick because she’s smart and quick on the uptake. One more notable thing about her real personality is that she is considerable. She is a straightforward person but keeps a patient attitude because she knows her comment could hurt somebody’s feeling.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Song Hyekyo

Image
What I felt about Song Hyekyo is that she is a courteous and calm person. She is not talkative and she treats people in a very polite way. However, according to the people who are very close to her, she is very cheerful and easily makes friends, which means she is shy of strangers but she behaves in a family way when she’s with her best friends. That’s why some of people in the Korean entertainment world say she acts like a princess, while her close friends say she seems like a guy in a woman's body.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Son Dambi

Image
Frankly speaking, I didn’t get any special feelings when I met Son Dambi because she looked and acted just like she did in TV. She’s very beautiful, but she sometimes acted rough and tough like a tough guy, while her way of talking was not feminine at all. Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m not talking she’s not attractive or she’s butch. What I want to say is that she’s not pretentious and she has an unaffected personality. All the people around her say she really is a genuine person. That’s why she is loved by so many people in the Korean entertainment world of the opposite sex.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Min Hyorin

Image
Min Hyorin is a doll-faced actress. She looks cold, but her character is diametrically opposed to it. When I had an interview with her, I was favorably impressed by her because she was polite and innocent. She acted amiably, and she laughed readily too. The interesting thing is that I got a similar impression by Taeyang when I had an interview with him. They're really a good match. I think it's unfortunate that the pretty actress couldn't have gotten enough support from her agency since she debuted.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Kim Taehee

Image
Before I first met Kim Taehee, I had a preconceived idea about her. I thought she should be a snob because she is so beautiful. However, I was wrong. She was not a hard nut to crack. During the interview, she spoke very openly and with candor about herself, and she didn’t act like a princess at all. She is smart and a person of firm character. Actually, some of Korean entertainment journalists say they’re disappointed in her because she just looks like an ordinary person at an interview. Of course, she is really beautiful, but I mean, her way of speaking and behavior is just like those of an ordinary person.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Jun Jihyun

Image
Jun Jihyun is beautiful. Everyone who sees her in person says she's a goddess. She has a small face and long legs. And she has an elegant atmosphere. I don't know if it is intended, but she is absolutely different from ordinary people when she talks and acts. Yeah, she talks and acts like a real celebrity. As she shows her pride and elegance when she is interviewed, some say they feel distance from her. However, it doesn't mean she is pretentious. When she is with her closest people, she enjoys having a joke and laughing just like her drama character, Cheon Song Yi.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Song Joong Ki

Image
When I met Song Joong Ki for the first time years ago, he looked to be full of confidence in his future. At first, I misunderstood that he was arrogant. However, I was wrong. He was confident of himself because he put efforts into his works that much. There's no other young Korean actors who try as hard as him. All the drama staff members talk about this, and that's why Song Joong Ki is so loved by the industry workers. Song Joong Ki is a good speaker and he's quite smart. He knows what he has to do as an actor and as a super star. I'm sure he will be active as an actor in the Korean entertainment world for a long time. And as he doesn’t usually act like a celebrity, he sometimes looks like an ordinary young healthy man.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Seo Inguk

Image
Seo Inguk is not a star who has a normal background. His family didn’t have enough money, and when he came to Seoul to become a singer, he had to live in a small room which is infested with rats. And you know, he reversed his life by becoming the winner of “Super Star K.” Because of such a background, he never acts haughtily even after becoming a popular star. He still acts like an ordinary person and is friendly to everyone. And he is a very sincere interviewee too.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Park Haejin

Image
Park Haejin is one of my closest celebrities. He looks better in real life. Actually, he lives a quite unexciting life. He films dramas and movies, and exercises in the gym. His only hobby is to collect shoes and Gundam models. Well, he is a right-minded man. He is friendly to everyone and doesn't hold his head high despite his great success. Personally, I love his Mercedes-Benz van because it is really gorgeous.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Park Shinhye

Image
Unlike other female Korean super stars, Park Shinhye doesn't act like a celebrity at all. (It doesn't mean other female stars are bad people and Park Shinhye is a good person) When she is interviewed, she readily communicates with the interviewer and tries to speak her true feelings. She's polite, lively, and easygoing. Actually, there's little difference between her character in TV dramas and her real self. She is loved by so many people in the Korean entertainment world because she has not changed at all since she debuted as a child actress long time ago. When I had an interview with her, she called me "Sweaty Jung" because I sweated like a pig.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Park Bogum

Image
No doubt, Park Bogum is one of the hottest young stars in Korea now, while many Korean females love him because he is not only handsome but also very modest and kindhearted. He is always friendly to people around him and never puts on airs. That's why there's no one who speaks ill of him in the Korean entertainment world. Personally, I think he is one of the two most good-natured Korean male celebrities along with Lee Seung Gi.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Lee Minho

Image
Lee Minho is self-confident but not arrogant. He has much pride in himself as a hallyu star. He's manly and has a positive drive. And he can lead conversations with effective use of humor. When I had an interview with him, I was a little bit surprised as the handsome star said he thinks he’s not handsome at all. He said “I’m not ugly, but I’m not traditionally good-looking either. I think people like me just because I have a friendly appearance.” Do you agree with the comment? Well, I don’t. The tall and attractive star looks great in real life. And the interesting thing is that the rich actor is not well-informed in financial matters at all. He said he does not concern himself with investments, and he just has his savings accounts.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Lee Jongsuk

Image
I met Lee Jongsuk years ago, and he was not that popular then. However, it seemed that he was sure of success. He was young but he was not fluctuating between hopes and fears. He had an easy and composed attitude. As he was full of self-confidence even before becoming a popular star, some say he is arrogant. But I don’t agree with them because I think his confident and positive personality made him so successful. And he is the thinnest actor I've ever met. I was so surprised because his legs were too thin.

[Korean Stars' Real Personality] Lee Kwangsoo

Image
As all the fans of “Running Man” know, Lee Kwangsoo is a funny guy. He fits in well with others and he has many friends. However, that’s not all. All the journalists who have an interview with him for the first time are surprised at how taciturn and serous he is. He does not act rashly in real life, while he has a very clear view on his career. In a word, he is a mature person. He enjoys having a joke with his friend, but he is not shallow. When he’s with his friends, he is the one who leads them because he is very thoughtful and sometimes charismatic.
